    The Chimp Attack...

    I was going to say "Chimp goes Ape"...but decided not to. Anyway, everyone probably heard about the 200pound chimp that attacked a woman and shredded her face. I have heard tons of folks addressing this tragedy from the "wild animal" angle but no one has talked about the fact that this chimp...

    Man vs. Wild

    Does anyone watch this nut? A couple of shows ago he ate something out of a pile of bear scat. I don't know how you would survive the massive infection that could overwhelm you while you are lost in the middle of nowhere. Did anyone else see this?

    Do You Believe in Alternative Medicine?

    The only thing that really bothers me is that people really believe that alternative treatments and herbs are safer because they have fewer side effects. Anything that will change how you feel has the potential to have an unpleasant side affect.

    Dirty Jobs

    I watch this show on a regular basis and find it fascinating. My next favorite show is Myth Busters!

    New Stimulus Package

    I think they were too busy hoarding money to stop and think about the future. Hopefully, most of those who were hoarding are going to lose everything. I wil never be convinced that most of these people didn't make their millions without perpetrating some sort of fraud.

    10-12 Glasses of Water Everyday For A Healthy You

    A while back, I heard that the guidelines might actually address fluids and not mean pure, plain water. I can't remember where I heard this but I think it was on one of those CNN health or wellness programs. Sometimes, people get a little carried away with these suggestions. I don't see a need...

    Does recession hit your pocket?

    I'm just trying to figure out how to take advantage of the current economic crises. Some of the most successful businesses have been those created during tough times.

    Gold as Investment

    I know! Makes me want to pull out some of my savings and buy up some of this "fool's gold" myself!

    Fourteen?

    There are guidelines based on the woman's age, governing the number of embryos implanted. Apparently, there are none that advocate implanting 8 embryos. The doctor is under investigation for ignoring those guidelines!

    Mental and Emotional Health Neglected?

    As far as I am concerned, there's no such thng as "sick time abuse". Once I have earned that time, it is mine to use as I see fit.

    Better on Television?

    The more likely there will be surveillance cameras, the less likely I am to be there. I saw this thing in CNN where they asked everyone in the crowd to take a picture right when Obama put his hand on the Bible. They then put all of those together so that you can zoom in on any particular area...

    Your Thoughts on the Economy?

    This depends on the region of the US. IN Colorado, things are a little better than they are in other places. Which banks are trying to loan you money? Are these banks or those high interest lenders that are swooping in on everyone? These fellows are actually looking to rack up pepple paying...

    New Stimulus Package

    The USA doesn't seem to have had its French or Bolshevik revolutions, but this just might spark one. If nothing else, Reps and Senators who want to keep their jobs, regardless of party, better step up and get things moving!

    Another blow for the Big3?

    I can see a huge after market area opening up for small auto motive repair businesses. Machine shops and fabrication might make a comeback, as well.

    Another blow for the Big3?

    I thought that most people with used cars got their parts from Auto Zone and similar stores. That's where we get ours.

    Another blow for the Big3?

    What "we" are you addressing? SUV's were an unnecessary and unwise product line to begin with. Auto makers wanted us to buy them, but most of the folks around here started buying foreign cars because they got better gas mileage. Auto makers spent a great deal of time trying to convince us we...

    Anyone Else Like Sci Fi Channel

    WE use to love the Sci-Fi channel, but when they started running wrestling, we started looking for supplemental viewing elsewhere. Now, they have some stupid game show and Ghost Hunters is on most of the time. We had started watching "Lost" for a while, then one week they moved it to a...

    Ready for the Cable Company Switches?

    As far as I know, we won't need to do anything. The cable company will be sending the signal so everything should be fine, without our having to rent a converter. If not, then I guess any tv we see will be on our computers.

    Families and the Mortgage Crises

    When congressional representatives start telling folks to resist, you know a revolution may be at hand.

    Mental and Emotional Health Neglected?
